Even sub-based games have their issues - and there's no need to look any further than at what dirt has Activision been dragging Blizzard through lately - but considering the vast differences in even the underlying philosophy between Free-to-P(l)ay and monthly subscription games, the latter, naturally, provide a much more reliable income, thus

You don't need to do any story to access maps except for Path of Fire (unless you have a Guild Hall in there or LWS4-4 for the instance portal adjacent to Vabbi). Elona has no easy way to access it unless you do the first story mission of PoF to get to crystal oasis, compared to HoT where you can just walk into the maps or EoD where you get the
Welcome to State of the MMO where we talk First Impressions, Pros and Cons, and if you should download this game this year! Today we're tackling the well-lov The answer, at least as far as guild Wars 2 is concerned, and even before it with the first one, has been a decided "No" regarding subscriptions. Subscriptions themselves don't make a game better or are indicative of an increased level of quality, the developers do that.
Level 80 booster will only give you levels. The story and everything around it is just optional content you can do while leveling up. It also doesn't mater wich story you will go first. You can do PoF story , then Personal Story and finish it with HoT story . It really doesn't mater at all.
Probably. SPvP (structured PvP, a.k.a. battlegrounds) are all balanced: Everyone is is bumped to level 80, with access to all traits and skills and have access to the same level of gear. So it doesn't matter if one guy spends the whole day playing, you two will be on-par (at least, at gear and skill levels, experience may change that, at first). Hot take! I've thought for many years that Guild Wars 2's lack of a monthly subscription has hurt the game in more ways than people realise. So this week we Yea, I'm done with Guild Wars 2. That's some pretty messed up gatekeeping right there. If you only play core Tyria (free to play part), you don't even NEED trading (so it prevents just free bot accounts from gold trade that are rampant in games that allows those) and the "free to play" part, the core is more like "free trial". Guild Wars 2 has one of the best monetization models in any MMO. The game does not require a monthly subscription, and there are no pay-to-win mechanics. All of the game’s content is available to players who own the base game and the expansion packs. The DX11 just added years to the lifespan of GW2. [Discussion] As someone who's played since GW1 I've always wondered what determines if AN continue with GW2 or develop a new game in the franchise. The jump from 1 to 2 was a significant milestone because it fundamentally shifted the game from a mini instanced game to a larger instanced game.
To represent a guild, open the guild panel. On the sidebar, the "Account Guilds" tab list of all guilds your account is a member of. Select one and then click the "Represent" checkbox to the left of the guild name. You must do this individually for each character, since joining a guild does not automatically require you to represent it.
And, no matter how it's implemented, even an optional subscription can slowly take over the game as the company caters to and seeks to grow a steady income stream. Even if the company puts effort into avoiding that, there's already the appearance and complaint that the gem store gets to much attention, and a sub fee will almost certainly reach
Hello! Non-steam version player here. I have a question about the sale for End of Dragons. My progression is all over the place, with my Guardian Firebrand and Engineer Holosmith basically the ones with the most progression (either has completed POF or HOT. but not both). I've
